You only turn the screw mounts when removing the chip. Side note, when mounting the fan, DO NOT turn the screw mounts. MSI H67 mobo, 4GB DDR3 Rendition RAM,ġ6 hours under prime 95, no errors accross 5 chips. Testing details: i5-2400 at 3.1ghz, power management and scaling off. Overall Review: Its a bit of a shame that such a good CPU comes with such a lackluster fan, but even still, 4 stars. ![]() The heatsink doesn't even make complete contact with the chip when mounted properly (it has a circular copper mounting surface which does meets the square processor surface 1-2mm outside of the edge of the chip, and about 5mm from the corners of the chip, leaving about 10-15% of the chip exposed). That's disappointing for such a good chip to come with a fan that struggles to cool under load. ![]() Even then, 39c idle and 70-75c load (running prime95 64bit). On two of my 5 builds with this chip I had to reseat the fan a few times to make good contact with the chip. First of all, it is very difficult to get the fan on well. Pros: Scores a 6500 in passmark CPU and is rated just behind the AMD 6 core for best power-to-price CPU (out performs the 6 core by a bit too).Ĭons: Stock fan. So with 5 minutes of work in the bios, and making sure the overclock is stable, I have 2500k performance on a budget. Even if you are running all stock, turn that voltage down! And also, always manually set your voltage, auto voltage gives it WAY more than it needs. Sure the chip isn't MEANT for overclocking, but you will see a performance gain with 300-400mhz. Manual control down to 1.175v and we're good to go. Auto voltage would put it over 1.30v and it would run hot. Not only that, I actually turned the voltage DOWN to run these clocks. I also turned the base clock up to 103 and now I'm running 3.7ghz daily. But if you have a good motherboard with overclocking features, you can set the multiplier in the bios at 36 straight up for 3.6ghz. Stock clocks is 3.1ghz and you might see 3.4ghz on turbo. Sure you can't overclock like a 2500k, but you can overclock. Overall Review: Not sure why people are saying you can't overclock these chips. Pros: Price for performance, runs cool, very powerful chip What’s more, add another dimension to what you see on your PC with Intel InTRU 3D technology which supports stereoscopic 3D Blu-ray playback in full 1080p resolution over HDMI 1.4. New built-in Intel HD Graphics delivers discrete 3D graphics performance without the needed cost and power of a discrete graphics card, and features Intel Clear Video Technology than enhances video playback, image quality, and color fidelity for a premium visual experience. Intel Quick Sync Video and newly-added Intel Advanced Vector Extensions (AVX) make media processing incredibly fast. Built-in Visuals (with H Chipset)The visual features built into the 2nd generation Intel Core processor family deliver everything you need to enjoy a stunning and seamless visual experience.Plus the memory controller's lower latency and higher memory bandwidth delivers amazing performance for data-intensive applications. Integrated DDR3 Memory ControllerIntegrated memory controller enables two channels of DDR3 1333 MHz memory, resulting in up to 21 GB/sec memory bandwidth.This efficient, multi-core-optimized implementation increases the probability that each core can access data from faster, more efficient cache subsystem resulting in significantly reduced latency for frequently used data and improved performance. Intel Smart CacheIntel Smart Cache Technology dynamically allocates the shared cache to each processor core based on workload.It delivers an even greater automatic speed increase by allowing processor and graphics cores to run faster than the base operating frequency for demanding applications if the processor is operating below power, current, and temperature specification limits. Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0More intelligent, energy-efficient, and dynamic than previous generation, Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0 gives you accelerating performance when you need it.New Microarchitecture on 32nm ProcessIntel’s cutting-edge 32nm microarchitecture with 2nd gen Hi-K+ metal gate process delivers the 2nd generation Intel Core processors with higher performance at lower power.This new release includes a microcode update from Intel for the following CPUs. Intel recently announced that it has completed software validations and has started to release new microcode for current CPU platforms in reaction to the following threats:ĬVE-2019-11091 – Microarchitectural Data Sampling Uncacheable Memory (MDSUM)ĬVE-2018-12126 – Microarchitectural Store Buffer Data Sampling (MSBDS)?ĬVE-2018-12127 – Microarchitectural Load Port Data Sampling (MLPDS)ĬVE-2018-12130 – Microarchitectural Fill Buffer Data Sampling (MFBDS)
